So glad I scheduled my follow-up visit with Doctor Wonderful on a truly beautiful Autumn day! I am approaching a full year since my successful sinus surgery. Dr. Mehta has taken excellent care of me. Another delightful visit. Also, his staff are hardworking, compassionate. Highly Recommended. Many Thanks.

Was there longer than expected but that was because he was comprehensive in his approach and it was completely worth it: consult, exam, ear canal cleaning, hearing testing, results and diagnosis. Book the appointment and be confident you have a great resource!

Was able to get a same day appointment for this specialist. Office staff was friendly, helpful and wait time wasn’t too bad. Dr Mehta has clearly been doing this for awhile. He listened to my issue, clearly explained my condition andproper course of action. I am very happy with him and will definitely go back.

I was 10 minutes late to my 8 am appointment and still managed to be in and out in 20 minutes. Dr. Mehta is always very respectful when I've seen him. I would return.

I was told that I would be seen within 25 minutes. After over an hour, I told the receptionist that I would have to leave because I had other appointments. Only then did the doctor see me. Even then I was rushed out of the office.

Dr. Mehta is a wonderful doctor. He was extremely professional and courteous. He was very patient and listened to me carefully. He immediately ran some test and resolved my issue when another doctor couldn’t diagnose me. I feel so much betterafter suffering from my ears and throat for over 2 months. Do not hesitate to make an appointment with Dr. Mehta. You might have to wait a bit but it’s worth waiting because you will get first class service with this physician.

It was my first visit to Dr. Mehta, i.e., he never saw me before. On arrival, I was asked by the receptionist to pay the co-pay amount, and a payment towards my insurance deductible. When I asked what the deductible wasfor, the receptionist explained that this is for procedures that I am about to have. She gave me 5 codes for the procedures so that I could verify them with my insurance, and I couldn't understand why would I need any, let alone all of these procedures, considering that the doctor hasn't even spoken to me yet, but I was required to pre-pay for them anyway. I heard before that some doctors' offices have expensive equipment and apply it to every patient regardless of whether they need it or not, to compensate for the lower contracted rates for the office visit itself. Clearly, this is one of such offices.

He spoke down to me a lot, responding to my description of symptoms like I was someone he needed to tolerate rather than work with to figure out what was wrong. The only reason I see him is because Dr. StaceySilvers is so tough to get in to see, and her office is far away. His staff is also brusque, but that's probably due to a shortage of people working the front desk. The phone will often ring for minutes without being answered, simply because the receptionist is trying to handle a room full of waiting patients and paperwork.

He was just amazing. After 1 and a half year, my Son had been suffering from pins and needles in his head. We saw five different doctors...none could solve our issue. He nailed it. No wasted time. He deserves every plaqueon his office walls, and more! God bless, Dr. Mehta

He was very personable, listened and knew what he was talking about. I will be back! The front desk is another story....Book an early morning appointment and if you dont think what they are saying is correct, keep asking questions until someone who knows what they are doing comes over.
